IDE :: Difference Between CS3 API FlashPlayer And FlashPlayer In A Browser?
Apr 9, 2009
I picked up enough AS3 recently to create some advertising banners and they work perfectly when I test the movie within CS3 by using ctrl+enter. I uploaded the created swf on the website and experienced lots of weird problems like child mcs stopping to play after a while or movies not playing till the end etc.. On some movies, they will play properly if you reload the website, on some others (the one which doesnt play till the end) that wont fix the problem either. The banners' filesizes are also around 8KB for example and include only text and vectors.
I published my movie by letting Flash create an html file, and the exact same problems are occurring there aswell. I mean I got strict mode and everything turned on in Flash but I'm not getting any errors at all when testing the movie. I also dont see any visual errors. It's just the swf acting differently in a browser.
So I'm trying to figure out what the difference between the flashplayer used by CS3 and the one in firefox is for example. I got the latest flashplayer (10 r22) on firefox and it seems that CS3 is using the flashplayer 9 (I'm not sure about this but its the player I found in the CS3 folder).I'm using timeline based tweens (I know it sucks and I did this mostly on the first banners I created and started using the tween classes built in Flash later on when I learned more AS3) so wondering if this is the problem.
I have an email form that sends some variables and receives a true/false from the server. It works perfect if I use a computer that doesn't have the lates flashplayer OR if I just test from inside flash.[code]...............
Now i should pass a parameter in cgi-bin/dynamicXML.ashx a parameter in its url, while this is inside the object/embed tag like cgi-bin/dynamicXML.ashx?objectid=1 How can I do that ?
I have been developing ActionScript apps for half a year or so. As far as I can see, mxmlc compiler is just a sh-script to call javac --{options} in more convenient way. This gives me an idea that my source code is compiled into native java byte-code.
From all above I can conclude that either Flash Player should require JVM installed or be a JVM itself. Or maybe Java is used to generate Adobe custom binary file just as any other compiler would do, but Java is cross-platform and an industry standard, so to avoid portability problems Adobe (Macromedia) could choose in for ActionScript/Flex.
I am new to Flash & AS3.0 platform. I am using Flash CS3 with ActionScript 3.0.How can I get the details (like version, etc.,)of Flash Player being used by the application using ActionScript 3.0?and, What are the classes(with full package names) that contain the properties and methods of the details of Flash Player?
in flashplayer 11,2,202,228, attach camera to video and see local video, sometimes camera movie is freezed when I change Camera.setquality and Camera.setmode. it's not happen older flashplayer. I heard it waste memory in flashplayer 11,2,202,228,
am modifiying some flash banners with a simple link(fp 8, actionscript 2.0). Why do i get this flashplayer security warning when i click it?The original sample banners i'm working from don't have this. How can I prevent this from popping up, without going into adobe's settings?
Is it possible to bypass or turn off the FlashPlayer 10 error pop-up in browser?
I tried the "omit trace actions" and "permit debugging" in Publish Settings but the pop-up still appears in browser testing. The error is well known and I dont need to solve it right now, but I need to show the project to some people without errors.
I have a Flash player that I created with Moyea PlayerBox and I am trying to figure out how to find out when the video is done playing. I want to create a playlist kind of like ESPN does where you can do a check box for continuous play and if it is checked I want it to keep playing if not I want the user to be able to decide where on the playlist to play.
I have to build a series of information kiosks and I was considering using flash technology.However, the Adobe license prohibits redistributing the flashplayer with embedded projects. Does anyone had experience with Adobe with similar projects?
I recently upgraded to flashplayer 11 and found that it made all the text on my buttons and dynamic text fields disappear. I noticed that you can see it when it first load and then vanishes. I can't find any documentation on this. Does anyone know how to fix?
I'm having trouble with the jump from Flash player 6 to Flash player 8.I have attached files to show you what I mean more, but basically i have a dynamic textfield and I want to be able to put numbers in it and have flash read it, but it spews up some HTML..URL...
I have apps in flash8 AS2 and flash10 AS3. When I open the AS2 apps in flash CS4 they don't work. This is a massive problem as I put them in a visual basic app with the flash 10 ocx. So the damn thing doesn't open them properly. I thought these things were backward compatible.
So I run into this issue that Enhanced Seeking is enabled by default. And I would really like to disable it (long story here). But it seems you can only disable it on the FMS, by adding this setting to the application.xml. But the thing is we are not sure if we will end up using an FMS or not. So, can I disable Enhanced Seeking without using FMS?
I use a Web-Browser control on my Delphi application. the Web-Browser control should navigates some HTML pages that contains Flash(SWF) files. It is often OK and there is no problem, But sometimes i get this error when my app is running.
Access violation at address 69864A7A in module 'Flash10q.ocx'. Wrote of address 0A35AB07.
I have been using TextFields like this to render text for a game. I've been developing in FlashDevelop, so the SWF is compiled using the Flex compiler.
My problem is that this text is not displayed with the appropriate formatting when I view it inside the browser as opposed to a flashplayer (which looks fine). Different screen resolutions tend to vary in how they distort text in the browser.
var welcomeText:TextField = new TextField(); //formatText creates a TextFormat object, sets those values into TextFormat //then returns after doing TextField.defaultTextFormat = TextFormatObj;
how to access a shock-wave flash player which has the Content-Type: application/x-shockwave-flashits a request get so i am using GET method of HttpClient .any solution to access flash content through Httpclient?
i want to know if it's possible for as3 to detect someone moves the flashplayer window, and if so, get it's new XY coordinates.And, again, if so, change them itself (aka position the flashplayer window)
I'm running an exe that loads in some very large movieclips upon startup. At any time during the content, it could freeze and I'm thinking its because of all the clips with hundreds of frames(animations).
I am wondering if I export those movieclips as individual swf's and load/play them that way, instead of initializing a new instance, if that will be helpful.
I've never had an application freeze so randomly, sometimes it will crash during the simplest part of the content with code that has been scoured for hours now with not finding an obvious reason to cause this.
Having this new problem with flash builder where I run a debug flashplayer, close out the flash and it doesn't always kill the process. Sometimes it does sometimes it doesn't, leaving me, after a while, having 10 or more flashplayer tabs on windows still open. I try to close them using the task manager with no luck.
I it possible to prelowad a sound file with javascript (or gwt) and feed it to a flashplayer without a server roundtrip?I would like to play the sound right after a uses clisks a button on a web site without a delay caused by server roundtrip.
